What a beautiful day!! We had a wonderful WHITE Christmas! Last night we had a pretty big storm blow through. But this morning it was blue sky and no wind! It was just as Christmas in my mind should be...
It started out with Dallin and Maggie in bed with us at 7:01 am. We did get Dallin to wait until about 7:30 before going downstairs... He was very patient... Waiting by the basement door...
We go downstairs to find that Santa was in a really big hurry and left the board covering the fireplace a little off. But that's ok - He left some fun stuff!! 
It started out with stockings filled with light sabers! A purple one for Maggie and a red one for Dallin. Maggie was already hitting Dallin with hers before he had his out of the package. 
Santa left Maggie a stroller that she promptly filled with a baby...
Santa left Dallin a castle with knights and pirates. It's just like Gramma and Grampa's in Indianapolis. Except ours comes with a decapitated knight!!!!
Scott and I made (with a TON of help from our friends) Dallin a train/car table thing. It is really fun and Dallin just loves it. So does Maggie...
We got Maggie a little cabinet set with pots and pans. It was in our neighbor's garbage pile and we asked if we could have it. They had used it for their kids, grandkids and great grandkids and were just cleaning house. So we got it and Scott sanded and re-varnished it. It is beautiful and Maggie just adores it!!
Then of course there were all of the grandparent and aunt and uncle gifts. Too many - we were totally spoiled. We went to Scott's parent's house for omelette's. It is their family tradition to do breakfast and not a dinner. I kind of like that idea since we just had dinner for Thanksgiving. Well, after a day filled with food, fun, toys and NO NAPS ~ this is what the drive home was like. 
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH......
Merry Christmas to all - and to all a goodnight!!!

I hope you guys had a wonderful Christmas! Lance woke me up at 3:03 asking if it was time to get up and I said no, Daddy hasn't been up that early since he was in the Marines and he just looked at me funny and went back to his room...but not back to bed. He then came and woke me up every 30-45 minutes until about 7:00 when I finally relented, made some coffee and got Kelley and the twins up. Fun stuff.
Jacelyn has a baby doll just like maggies. I named her Kimmy, she is the cutest little doll. I love little baby kimmy. Everytime Jace see's that same doll some were she gets all excited and says "OH, theres kimmy" it is so cute.
oh....I just noticed the train set, I like what you have done with it... it looks ALOT better!
